RE: An answer to a question by Bo

Cool, that's a relief I didn't offend you. That clip of the 12 year old is fairly old, I'll have to check out what has become of him -- though I must admit I'm not into modern classical music.

In real life, the redneck Morris in the clip was Jimmy Herring's mentor :-) He was an artist who just happened to be a musician if you know what I mean.

Oh man I loved the Freak Brothers -- I never registered who wrote them, I'm going to have to check out Gilbert Shelton and find out more about him. We used so laugh so hard we cried reading those CBs :-D

Sort:  

I am not completely unoffendable, but in things like this you would have to come up with something much better to make me just slightly grumpy :)

I agree very much with the statement about artists not taking themselves seriously, I try not to and that is why I love people like Shelton!

Yesterday I watched an interview with Gilbert Shelton on Youtube, and also saw a really great clip of a film someone wanted to produce of the F. Freak Bros. :-)

I am not sure they ever got to make that film - it was before crowdfunding really had taken off. Both Shelton and Crumb are great in interviews: Robert Crumb, Gilbert Shelton and the Oz Trial

Saw that one, but didn't find the time yet.
